Turning Point Real Estate is pleased to announce the availability of highly visible commercial lots at VANTAGE 70 (the former BP Solar Headquarters) in Frederick, Maryland. The site is being planned for industrial, manufacturing, office and research users. Demolition of the former BP Solar manufacturing facility has commenced and preliminary subdivision plans have been designed to accommodate 48,000 to 500,000 buildable square feet on commercial lots ranging from 4 to 23 acres. The property is enhanced by two existing structures; an above ground 65,000+/- SF Warehouse Manufacturing Facility (with significant electric, water, and sewer capacities), and a 66,500+/- SF warehouse or parking structure under a 130,000+/- SF slab, engineered for multi-story construction. Vantage 70 is owned by an affiliate of Bristol Capital Corporation, a Bethesda, MD based commercial real estate investment and development firm.

“The City of Frederick strongly supports Bristol Capital’s efforts to redevelop the BP Solar property for new tenants. This site has some of the best interstate visibility and recognition in the region and is well positioned for new investment and employment,” says Richard Griffin, Director of Economic Development for the City of Frederick, Maryland. “Removal of the BP Manufacturing facility provides a unique opportunity for new construction adjacent to MedImmune’s highly visible state-of-the-art manufacturing plant.”

The site’s location creates a rare opportunity for companies that seek to take advantage of the visibility provided by 900 feet of road frontage along I-70 and the easy access onto I-270, Route 15 and Route 340 ... all heavily traveled commuter routes to Baltimore, MD, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania and Virginia.

“The site offers one of the last interstate signage opportunities within the region and the Technology Corridor. This property is clearly one of the region’s most visually prominent and geographically strategic sites. The proximity to major commuter routes, the amenities of Frederick and the exposure to 150,000 cars per day offers a rare blend of advantages to any business. It is a prime location for a company that would take advantage of the extensive signage, fiber, water, sewer, and power capacities,” says Charles Seymour, President of Turning Point Real Estate.

Proposals for Lot Sales, Building Lease, and Build-to-Suit scenarios will be considered. For more details about this property, contact Charles Seymour, President of Turning Point Real Estate, at 301-831-8232 or visit vantage70.com.
